Block Pinned Topics

[twangster]

Is there any way to block or remove pinned topics from my view of a forum?

 

Some forums have gone crazy with pinned topics so that current topics are shuffled onto other pages.  If I have viewed a pinned topic why does it need to stay in my page 1 view for that forum?

The pinned topics in the forums are out of control I agree and many are years old. I wish I could remove them as well as you have to scroll down half a page to even get to the first new post.
